Coaching staff speculations?
- Thread starter Dream Killer
- Start date
I think it's kinda delusions of grandeur to assume a player would go on the Rivals board and go "oh, THIS is the speculation that has changed my mind. I am decommitting"
Agree with u. Stupid and immature. It’s just to make trouble. Makes no sense. When posters get personal they lose credibility imo. Talk football
U r probably right. Players know that the posters can go off the rails. Says more about the posters than the coach When u go down this road u kill the enjoyment of the board imo
Don't feel good about the risk surrounding the hire......but things can change over time. Curious who we can get on staff, then how we can play catch up in the portal since our talent level for next year is seriously low.
As someone who was born in Nebraska, grew up a Huskers fan, go back to Nebraska all the time, you have to understand the football team is equivalent to Hollywood celebrities in Nebraska. And with that you get a sort of National Enquirer style coverage to the football team some times. So, yeah I'm sure there is some truth to the rumors about Frost, but I'm also fairly confident that a lot of the stories and details are exaggerated/not true.
I am no fan of Hinshaw, but JRP went from barely playing in college as a WR to making an NFL roster as a quarterback. Somebody has to credit.
Milton, meanwhile, is less qualified than Trevon Reed to be a position coach at the P4 level.
If I am hiring a brain surgeon, and my options were....
guy (Hinshaw) has a been an average brain surgeon everywhere he has been
and
guy (Milton) who got worked on by a brain surgeon and has watched some other folks perform brain surgery
I am selecting A 10 out of 10 times.

Some posters only seem to feel good about themselves when they $4it on players and coaches and everyone around them.
It's incredible that people are already $h1tt1ng on Frost talking about rumors etc. It's fine if you don't like the hire. I can understand that after Nebraska.
But the fact is that there are no guarantees with any coach. You can be TCU in the national championship a couple of year's ago or an undefeated FSU and be awful the next year. Winning is not easy...and winning consistently is even harder.
Frost is our new coach. He has my full support, just as Gus did...until proven otherwise. The Negative Nancys on here are ready to run Frost out and the guy hasn't lost a game yet. They act as though they have some inside information on these Frost rumors and can predict the future. It's a 50/50 chance any coach is successful. One thing is for sure, almost all coaches are hired to only be fired. Most don't get to coach for decades at the same school and leave on their terms.
I don’t know whether or not Frost is a "drunk" or not. He could be, but he could not be. But I would think Terry investigated any rumors about Frost's "drinking" and any other rumors. After all.... It's only his job that's on the line.

It's human nature for some people to come out and say everything is going to fail. It gives coverage and protection. You're either right and can brag about being right or you're wrong and can just say, "man, I am so glad to be wrong!" It's pretty understandable for the average person to lower expectations to protect themselves.
Any speculation/rumors about defensive coordinator? I feel like that is the most important coach on staff behind Frost.
Graham Harrell fits this description. He was this year's sacrificial OC at Purdue before they fired the whole coaching staff. There might be other good coaches off that staff for Frost to check out because Purdue...We need young energetic coaches the players identify with that also have 30 years of experience and will work for very little money.
Harrell always seems to be available when we have a coaching vacancy and I always feel like he would be a good head coach using The Pirate's Air Raid at UCF. Frost might be smart to bring him in for his Air Raid expertise and to tell all the Pirate Stories of old. Charge On!!!
the OC hire can also be effected by whether Frost wants to call the plays 100% of the time or not
No. It's been 3 days since he was hired. And he wasn't on staff to just bring a team with him. He's gotta make calls.
Really? Bringing politics into a football forum. I hope you’ve stocked up on the Kleenex, and it will last for the next four years.
Joined BSU as an offensive analyst and assistant QB coach in 2024, spent 2023 as the OC/QB coach at Maine. Previous to Nebraska held several positions at Portland State, ending up at OC/QB coach.
Steve Cooper just got fired as the Leicester City boss. Glad he found his feet so quickly. /s
I'm finding myself becoming one of the people I said bring low expectations to protect themselves. So far, our coaching hires feel more like an internship program.
I think he needs to get a defense coordinator that he could stick his head in the room periodically but leave it to the defense coordinator to run that side of the ball and he can concentrate on the offense
